There are several ways to focus, depending on the subject.When the subject is not in the center of the frame
• Place the subject in the center of the frame, lock the focus on the subject, and then recompose your picture.
• Set [AF MODE] to [iESP].g “AF MODE Changing the focusing area” (P. 22)
The subject is moving quickly• Focus the camera on a point roughly the same distance away as the subject you want to
shoot and lock the focus (by pressing the shutter button halfway). Then recompose your picture and press the shutter button completely as the subject enters the frame.
• Under certain types of conditions, it is difficult to focus using auto focus. The green lamp on the monitor lights, allowing you to check if the focus is locked.
In these cases, focus (focus lock) on an object with high contrast at the same distance as the intended subject, recompose your shot and then take the picture. If the subject has no vertical lines, hold the camera vertically and focus the camera using the focus lock function by pressing the shutter button halfway, and then return the camera to the horizontal position while keeping the button pressed halfway and take the picture.
Be sure to hold the camera firmly with both hands and press the shutter button slowly so as to avoid moving the camera. You can reduce the blurring when shooting the picture in h mode.
g “h Shooting pictures using digital image stabilization” (P. 11)The digital images are not stabilized when:
• images are shot at a high-magnification zoom setting, i.e. using both optical zoom and digital zoom functions,
• the object is dark and the shutter speed is slow, or• scene modes where the flash is turned off and/or the shutter speed is slow.
Shooting tips
Focusing on the subject
Subjects that are difficult to focus on
Prevent blur by using image stabilization

Subject with low contrast
Subject with an extremely bright area in the center of the frame
Subject without vertical lines

The flash is activated automatically when there is insufficient light, or when the camera is shaken. To take pictures with no flash in dark places, set the flash mode to [$] and set as follows:Increase the [ISO] setting
g “ISO Changing the ISO sensitivity” (P. 21)
There are several factors that can cause the picture to appear grainy.Using the digital zoom to take close-up pictures
• With the digital zoom, part of the image is cropped and enlarged. The greater the magnification, the grainier the picture appears.
g “DIGITAL ZOOM Zooming in on your subject” (P. 22)Increasing the ISO sensitivity
• When you increase the [ISO] setting, “noise”, which appears as spots of unwanted color or unevenness in the color, can be introduced and give the picture a grainy appearance. This camera is equipped with a function to allow shooting at high sensitivity while suppressing noise; however, increasing the ISO sensitivity can result in some noise, depending on the shooting conditions.
g “ISO Changing the ISO sensitivity” (P. 21)
• The reason why there are sometimes differences between the actual colors and the colors recorded in a picture is related to the light source illuminating the subject. [WB] is the function that helps the camera determine the true colors. Normally, the [AUTO] setting provides the optimal white balance, but depending on the subject, results may be better if you manually adjust the [WB] setting.
• When the subject is in the shade on a sunny day• When the subject is illuminated by both natural light and indoor lighting, such as when
near a window• When there is no white in the center of the frame
g “WB Adjusting the color of a picture” (P. 21)
• Take pictures with K in s mode. Suitable for taking pictures on a sunny day at the beach or in the snow.
g “s (Scene) Selecting a scene mode according to the shooting situation” (P. 20)• Often, bright subjects (such as snow) turn out darker than their natural colors. Use 1F to
adjust toward [+] to make these subjects closer to their true shades. Conversely, when you are shooting dark subjects, it can be effective to adjust toward the [–]. Sometimes, using the flash may not produce the brightness (exposure) that was intended.
g “1F button Changing picture brightness” (P. 15)
• With [ESP/n] set to [n], the picture can be taken based on the brightness at the center of the monitor without being affected by the light in the background.
g “ESP/n Changing the area for measuring the brightness of a subject” (P. 22)• Set the flash to [#] to activate fill-in-flash. You can shoot a subject against backlight without
the face of the subject appearing dark. [#] is effective for shooting against backlight and under fluorescent and other artificial lighting.

Appendix
EN
• This camera uses a lithium ion battery specified by Olympus. Do not use any other type of battery. For safe and proper use, read the battery’s instruction manual carefully before using it.
• If the battery’s terminals get wet or greasy, camera contact failure may result. Wipe the battery well with a dry cloth before use.
• Always charge a battery when using it for the first time, or if it has not been used for a long period.• When operating the camera with battery power at low temperatures, try to keep the camera and spare
battery as warm as possible. A battery that has run down at low temperatures may be restored after it is warmed at room temperature.
• The number of pictures you can take may vary depending on the shooting conditions or battery.• Before going on a long trip, and especially before traveling abroad, purchase extra batteries. A
recommended battery may be difficult to obtain while traveling.• Please recycle batteries to help save our planet’s resources. When you throw away dead batteries, be sure
to cover their terminals and always observe local laws and regulations.
• Do not push the monitor forcibly; otherwise the image may become vague, resulting in a playback mode failure or damage to the monitor.
• A strip of light may appear on the top/bottom of the monitor, but this is not a malfunction.• When a subject is viewed diagonally in the camera, the edges may appear zigzagged on the monitor. This
is not a malfunction; it will be less noticeable in playback mode.• In places subject to low temperatures, the monitor may take a long time to turn on or its color may change
temporarily. When using the camera in extremely cold places, it is a good idea to occasionally place it in a warm place. A monitor exhibiting poor performance due to low temperatures will recover in normal temperatures.
